The Cutest Corporation
It’s gotta be good to be Apple. They’re the corporation everyone loves; the mascot of American ingenuity. Are we surprised that the same ingenuity that brought us the Mac and the iPhone would also uncover perfectly legal and totally awesome corporate … Continue reading
My Zippered Frog
As I was looking down at my summer purse the other day I realized it had become sort of rag-tag. It is a straw purse and a frequent scratching post for the cats because they just can’t resist. Like it … Continue reading

It’s all in the eye of the beholder. Or be-reader. Another past favorite in my continuing effort to Blog Green. Recycle, reuse, repeat after me… Can You Hear Me Now? Posted on September 13, 2012 by Jill Foer Hirsch My favorite … Continue reading
Not So Constructive Criticism
I have been working furiously on final touches to my book. Today was the day I asked Dan to start reading it. He’s read older versions, but I’ve done a ton of revisions since then. I anxiously watch his face, … Continue reading

And Thousands Cheered
I’m going to admit that I am not particularly religious, but I have now witnessed the power of prayer. I know no one would specifically pray for me to get laryngitis, but surely many people have fervently prayed that I … Continue reading
Just Ducky
For the last 15 months I’ve worked on the planning committee for the Association of Legal Administrators (ALA) Annual Conference. The long awaited conference was April 14-17, and I’m left with a bittersweet feeling of relief because it’s over and … Continue reading
